While the formbook suggests a walkover for the hosts, the fact remains that Mumbai’s last 3 defeats have been against teams in the top 3, while the Titans’ 3 wins were against two sides in the bottom 3 of the table and a side in 5th place.

After a lengthy period of domination by the Titans, including wins in both group matches in 2025, Mumbai Indians hit back by defeating the Titans in last season’s Eliminator thanks to Rohit Sharma’s 50-ball 81.

Possible XI: Shubman Gill (c), B Sai Sudharsan, Jos Buttler, Washington Sundar, Glenn Phillips, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Kagiso Rabada, Ashok Sharma, Prasidh Krishna, Mohammed Siraj.

Match Analysis
The stadium at Ahmedabad presents batters with a perfect track for piling on the runs. The fast outfield aids the run-rate by rewarding strokes through the gaps. There should be early movement for the seamers with the new ball but it will even out to assist the batters. Bowlers who manage to maintain a good line and length will be rewarded as they are likely to put the opposition batters under pressure.
The black soil pitch usually slows down through the evening and can offer nice grip for the spin bowlers. Seamers tend to enjoy lateral movement in both innings. The slightly larger and usually slower outfield is an advantage for the side bowling second looking to defend a decent target.
The average first innings score is around 180, but teams often hit the 200-run mark. Evening dew can make life tricky for the tweakers, which plays into the hands of the side chasing.
The pitch offers true bounce and this assists batters looking to hit over the top, so teams getting off to a good start will look to cash in during the closing overs.
Betting Markets to Watch
Player Performance
Quinton de Kock has played just 1 innings in this IPL but after scoring a century in their last match he’s the most in-form Mumbai Indians batter so is worth backing to top-score for his side.
Score Over/Under Runs
Shubman Gill has scored 39, 70, 56 & 86 in his 4 IPL innings, so he is worth backing to score over 32.5 runs
Take Over/Under Wickets
Kagiso Rabada has found form with the ball, taking 1/54 and 3/29 in his last 2 matches, so he is a good call to get among the wickets against Mumbai. Prasidh Krishna is 2nd on the IPL wickets list (11 wickets, S/R 10.9), so he is worth backing to take 2 or more wickets.
Jasprit Bumrah has been economical this season as opposition batters look to play him out. He has yet to take a wicket in 5 IPL matches so he’s worth backing to take less than 2 wickets in this match.
Latest Odds
| Market | Odds |

| Gujarat Titans Win | 1.96 |
